dc.description.abstractThe ability to effectively regulate emotions is fundamental to interpersonal and physical functioning. Emotion regulation strategies are not equal, however, with some positively and others negatively impacting physical health. Specifically, previous literature has demonstrated that distinct intrinsic emotion regulation strategies differentially predict chronic inflammation, as measured by C-Reactive Protein (CRP), but little is known about the association between extrinsic emotion regulation strategies and chronic inflammation. Furthermore, the extrinsic emotion regulation strategies employed by parents are facilitative of the developing emotion regulation skills of children, and inflammation has been identified as a key biological factor that could impact the intergenerational transmission of emotion dysregulation, either by explaining it or by modifying the strength of the intergenerational association. This study seeks to replicate previous findings demonstrating a link between intrinsic emotion regulation strategies and chronic inflammation in a community sample of mothers with preschool-aged children. Additionally, this study aims to extend those findings and interrogate the association between extrinsic emotion regulation strategies and chronic inflammation. Last, this study proposes to examine the associations between intrinsic and extrinsic emotion regulation strategies in mothers and the socioemotional health of their preschool-aged children, predicting that the relationships between maternal intrinsic and extrinsic emotion regulation strategies and child socioemotional health will be significantly impacted by maternal chronic inflammation. Both moderation and mediation models will be evaluated.en_US
